The Gaelic Maundeville (Author: John Maundeville)

paragraph 206

Jugglers come before him and cause the likeness of a sun and moon full of radiance to do him reverence as a sun and as a moon. The maidens of the house then come and bring to him and to the ladies cups of gold full of mares' milk. Knights mount their horses and are jousting in the hall until the king and all his family go to their meal.
